i think diplomats are suspecting that is what the obama administration has in mind. we're told by the white house that no decision yet has been made. no decision on what exactly is going to happen, and the final decision is on the timing. one useful bit of information that i've come across in the last few minutes following a phone call. >> the u.n. continued their mission. they took their samples, they interviewed their witnesses. so that investigation is underway. one very important caveat to all that is to remember the mandate for this investigation of those inspectors. they have been told to find out whether chemical weapons have been used. they are not supposed to determine who used them. in many ways the investigation can go on, but it doesn't help us in what happens next. and it seems to me that the obama administration and some of the western allies now believe a route other than the u.n. is needed. >> u.n. diplomat i caic editor, james, good to talk to you. the agreement of 1997 bans the stock piling of chemical weapons. there is no reliable information on ho

obama got 93% of the african-american vote. romney got 6%. what does the republican party need to do to bring in, to recruit more african-americans like yourself? >> first thing is show up. you've got to be there to make the message. you can't just show up on sunday morning the weekend before the election. you've got to be there. the chairman has done a great job of outlining a plan that i think will help republicans win in the next election. but you look at my election in 2006 when i first ran. i actually carried the african-american vote in my district, which is about 20% of the district and we did it by going door to door and establishing a relationship with everybody in the community. and sometimes that means going around the traditional community leader. >> what's the biggest misconception from your perspective that african-americans have about the republican party right now? >> i think solely that somehow the republican party is the party of old white men. but when you look around the country, former figures like j.c. watts or alan keys

the obama adding is playing a long game. it has high takes that it's facing and has very little information in terms of the groups that it can back in terms of the opposition. it needs much for information and assets on the ground before it can credibly move forward. it's a deliberative long process that looks at times very grim. they are only to get one chance at this and they have to get it right, so they are taking their time. >> speaking of a grim process, what form would military retaliation actually take? >> well, we could see two different types. the one, the obama administration would prefer is the strategic approach, where over time, they are able to gather a group of opposition forces that they can trust. they can help, they can arm to some degree, maybe some air support. that group can take over the country and hopefully lead syria back to civil peace. the ortho is what we saw quite recently with the attacks last week. in that case, the obama administration now needs to face the fact that it might have to act puni
